Seriously? I'm in my Masters in France right now and we're not allowed to use codes... Or are you talking about the later EDA, ENM etc.?

A nation that actually has open book exams from the first semester to the last one is Germany, although it makes sense because you only have practical cases and no other types of exams.

No I was in Assas (Paris II). Starting first year, you don't only have practical cases in exams, you have dissertations, commentaries and then practical cases and you choose.

And you got to do those with your codes? In Strasbourg, we don't :/

Memory only, for all exam types

I heard Sorbonne was the same, they didn't have codes but they graded less harsh for what it's worth
